Singapore you probably need 2.5-3x of India salary to maintain a similar standard of living 

Jakarta - While overall very cheap, you should get paid 1.5x of India to compensate for the costs of being an expat (food, stay etc is limited and hence you spend more)

Have not lived in Manila and hence no context about how it is there

Do you think people save more money in Singapore or india overall? Does high cost of living mean I make no savings?

Product Marketing Manager

I did see people ending up saving money
I think low taxation makes a huge load of difference. Plus I think good public infrastructure helps - less spend on commute etc.

What is the ideal salary for someone who is targeting Program Manager in Strategy & Ops/Founder's-CEO's-MD's Office?

What is the rent like in the aforementioned cities? How much should one churn out to live modestly in these places?

For example: I used to make 60k+ INR in Gurgaon and my rent was 16k and miscellaneous was 15k more. Rest was all savings/investment.

Will love help here.

Business Development Manager

Got a job offer which is asking me to relocate to bangalore. I’m currently based out of Gurgaon and not familiar with the rent/amenties scene there. 

What is a good salary range to live a good life there? By good I mean 
- Living in a decent (subjective ik) society with some basic amenities like gym, park, pool (would love that) etc. 
- Dining/Partying at least once a month. 
- Going out to some place atleast once a week
- Having a maid for cooking + cleaning


Other expenses would remain same across cities (digital products/shopping etc)

All pointers appreciated.

I know this is very vague bordering on stupidity, but for a single guy to survive in Bangalore, what is like the average monthly expense etc, if planning to stay in a small house while eating outside

I am not from India, moved to London 4.5y ago and I'm considering a move to India.

But I struggle to understand the relationship between salaries <> lifestyle <> money saved each month.

Would be cool to learn everyone's salary, but also your lifestyle and how much you save per month. Can you help with the following template?

Role: 
City: 
Salary: 
Rent: 
Food: 
Transport: 
Savings per month: 

Any other costs I should factor in that you feel are necessary to consider?

Thanks for the help!

In London, might move to India (need help on salary/savings)

The title says it all. 


While I understand that a lot depends on interview etc still want to understand what is the current market for this role? CTC upper limits etc. 

I'm based out of Gurgaon, and wanted to understand how the CTC stands when compared with BLR?

Salary expectation for a Senior Program Manager role with 10yrs exp(5yrs in Startups), tier 3 education

Google L4 Program Manager, roughly 30 LPA TC excluding stocks, where could I go next and get a decent hike while maintaining some semblance of WLB, 5 days X 9 hours with some stretch once or twice in a quarter.

Where to go after Google?

Program Manager

A friend is applying to a US-based unicorn startup. The role is remotely based out of India. First PM from India.

The average SPM salary available online is in $. Comes around $150-250k. No PMs are based in India, and expats are not replying on LinkedIn.  

The PPP comparison makes the average salary in INR go high. Any idea what number could one quote for the role?

Been in Bangalore for 6+ years and love everything the city has given me. 
This city ( more like people here) taught me what software engineering and product sense is, how to entrepreneurs function, whats a 100X coder like. 
Made many memories, weekend trips to nearby places were so nice. Dated, moved in and then married my girlfriend, adopted a dog. So Bangalore has given me a lot. 
But in hindsight it takes a way a lot also - 
1. Everybody is in constant work mode, even in parties its just about who is doing what
2. Everybody is in loot mode here - i have seen locals pay less for veggies/fruits in front of me, then the veggies apparently have lead in them
3. Rents/builders/brokers/roads - we all know whats up with them 

Though it was nice initially, now i feel like even after earning so much ( ctc > 1cr) if i just spend it all here ( monthly expenses ~2lacs same is with all my married friends), what is the point even.

Hence making a move to slow life now, where you get a house with garden for 25k and fresh veggies and you can actually develop some relationship with community. 

This urge to always outperform in career is not really needed, we all eventually work towards savings and hence if i earn less but spend even lesser, its more or less the same thing for me.

But i dont want to live in a matchbox, travel 1 hour to meet a friend, eat a roti for 150bucks and be in constant anxiety about climbing the ladder. 

All i want is to focus on health, and sit in a garden in some sunshine with my wife and my dog and enjoy a cup of tea. 

So yes, I AM DONE. Moving to a tier 2 ( more like tier 2.5 town ) 

Happy to answer any questions if anybody has any.

Done with Tier1 cities, moving to tier 2 town with family - A rant

So are you fed up with Bangalore or just the career rat race? 
  
 Both are different. 
  
 Also, costs can be low in Bangalore, spending 2L/mo in married life isn't a feature of the city, it's the feature of your circle. 
  
 Not all high earners have to be HENRYs

I know it's vague but I'm just want to know if I can or should I keep pushing for an higher package

I'm new here, lmk of there a grapevine post "tax"
